Infographic of the day: The Blog Tree-new growth

A testament to just how hard we are all working to cross the metaphorical border between a blog of opinion and a blog authority, Eloqua and JESS3 have partnered again to design The Blog Tree: New Growth (building on the success of the original Blog Tree infographic project from last year). The scores of each blog are established by Edelmen's Bloglevel (we got 11.3, so we've still got some work to do) and its a nice, stylistic look into the growth of the blogosphere into an over-saturation of the attention economy.

Infographic of the day: Facebook FAIL

We know the routine by now: Facebook changes something, we hate it, and then we get used to it. But what about the ones that really did fail, and disappeared before long? What about the ones that were too late to actually make sense as an addition? Or the ones that were just downright retarded? Courtesy of Wordstream, our infographic of the day goes into many failed projects that you may have forgotten about: Facebook Lite, Gifts, and (God Forbid) The Facebook deals. Check it out!

Infographic of the day: What the tech!?

So how are people reacting to the iPhone 4S? You know, now that we've both hated and loved it, then ended in a mutual state of disdain. What people move to a DVD subscription model or the web streaming alternative? Will you buy the Kindle Fire? And if possible, would you go back to the previous Facebook layout? The results are both surprising and totally expected in our infographic of the day, courtesy of lab42.com.

Infographic of the day: The Science of Peer Pressure

We've all been in that position as socially awkward individuals: wanting to win in the social setting by caving into what the majority think instead of sticking out like a metaphorical sore thumb. But what biological process occur to get to this decision of keeping to the codes and conventions. It turns into an infograph-ad for One block off the grid's solar energy plans; but it also pushes across the science of peer pressure in social norm marketing: breaking the pseudo-norms, being the individual or the aforementioned metaphorical sore thumb is what we like. Our infographic of the day.

Infographic of the day: Michael Bay

Lets be honest, even though the simple title "Infographic of the day" seems menial enough, the fact that the name "Michael bay" has been put just a colon and space to the right of it just makes the whole affair seem more epic.

But enough of that, we know the first thing anyone thinks about when they hear of Bay is the explosions. How many have their been in the history of his film-making career? And what is the correlation between the amount of explosions, and the amount of money his films make? These are questions that Kyle Vanhove answered in our Infographic(s) of the day.
